I am running:  Java 1.4.0, Apache Tomcat 4.0, and  Jetspeed 1.3a2 
Release-fullwar.

Hi,
  I am trying to configure jetspeed so that the templates bordering the main 
content (left.vm, top.vm, bottom.vm, ...) are 'context-sensitive'.  
Something like this is already implemented in top.vm (checking if the user 
has logged in).  But I was hoping the border could be dependant on things 
like which pane was currently selected, or which role|group the current use 
was in.

#-- my explorations:
  I have looked through the available RunData object ($data) and have found 
some stuff which seems close to what I want, but not really:

$!data.Parameters
Will return things like::

  {password=jetspeed} {template=/html/Home.vm} {action=JLoginUser} 
{submit=Login} {username=admin}
OR
  {template=/html/Home.vm} {pane0=Security}
OR
  {template=/html/Home.vm} {select-panel2=Security Role Browser}



Is there some established wasy to determine - what pane I am in? What group 
is the current user in? What role is the current user in?

There may be a better way to go about this (a portlet here, a portlet 
there???) but shoving this logic into the .vm files is all I have been able 
to concoct...


Cheers,

Enrique
